How they rated

Can’t be blamed for the goals conceded and were it not for his three top drawer saves the damage would have been a lot worse. 7

James Tavernier Skipper was caught cold at Spartak’s first equaliser, failing to cut out the delivery to the back post. Disappointing night. 5

Connor Goldson Booted the ad board in frustration after turning what should have been a straightforward mopping up job straight into his own net. Torrid second half on his toughest night in a Rangers shirt. 5

Restored to central defence at the expense of Joe Worrall but although not the worst of the back four, he must carry the can with the rest. 6

Jon Flanagan Made key creative contribution with the ball that released Candeias to put Gers 2-1 up but lost his man as Spartak mad it 3-3. 6

Daniel Candeias

Put the frustration of his controversial red card at the weekend to work the right flank. Terrific turn and composure restored Rangers’ lead. 7

Scott Arfield Tried to push up in support of Morelos but increasingly forced on the back foot at Spartak dominated after the break. 6

Lassana Coulibaly Pressured Roman Eremenko to turn the ball into his own net for the opener and relieved when penalty claim against him was snubbed. Booked. 6

Ovie Ejaria Tried to put his foot in the ball in a crowded midfield but too often flitted out of the action as the game passed him by. 5

Glenn Middleton Big chance for the kid to shine in his first Europa League start and quickly seized it by whipping in the delivery for Rangers’ opening goal. Got in on the scoring act himself with a well taken strike. 7

Saw a goal chopped off for offside just before the break, summing up a frustrating night when very little went the hitman’s way. 5

Subs used:

Eros Grezda (on for Coulibaly 82). Too late to make an impact. 1

Andy Halliday (on for Flanagan 82) Came close with last gasp effort. 2
